Just Their Fun.

Willie Verley, by his mother, entered
complaint yesterday in Judge Dingevon's
Court against David John Kelly. aged IL,
Willie Holmes, IL, and Jonathan Shad-
well, IA, for taking away from him and
maliciouslv losing one rubber boot. As
stated by the complaining witness he and
another boy were IN the flats near the
depot gathering mushrooms yesterday
forenoon. Verley had on a pair of rubber
boots that he had purchased out of his
earnings doing chores. and set a high value
upon them in consequence. The defend
ants came up to them, and by way of di-
version, according to his story, stripped his
companion and threw him into the creek,
and then took Verley's rubber boots off
and threw them in, too. The boy got out
all right, but one of the boots sank out of
sight, to Verley's great grief. Judge Dinge-
Won put on his most ter,
ran the trio of scapegraces
into the hall Of the blind goddess, but some
graceless sinners present seriously i'm
paired the dignity of the proceedings by
gloomy references to the quality of the
beans now in use at the county jail and the
long Incarceration the boys would endure
before they came of age and could get out.
In spite of that the children we're ar.
who we're present, held up their hands in
holy horror and pious grief at the crushing
load Of iniquity with which the legal docu-
ment charged the infants. They pleaded
not guilty and the judge allowed the two
younger to 60 on their own recognizance,
while, to Mrs. Shadwell's intense indigna-
ton. her son was held under $25 bond,
which she furnished. to appear for trial on
